How do you hookup 2cvr 12 to a mono amp? - Jl Audio CVR12 Kicker 12" CompVR Series 2005 Car Subwoofer (800 Watts) Car Speaker

Check your ground

you need to wire each sub down to 2ohms then wire them together like the one in this pic http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/2_subs_DVC_4_ohm_mono_variation2.jpg witch will give you 1ohm so you will be getting every bit of power that amp has but you should get a bigger amp for thos speakers

I would bridge down to to 2 ohm mono.

either ur ohm load is way off ur pos n neg might be touchin or more than likely u blew u sub is it scratchy when u push in the middle of the cone ? does it push in at all?

Well with the correct powering system, heaps of paralleled 12 volt Batteries, & a Beefed up Alternator to charge them, I guess so, BUT it is only Mono, so you will need TWO to provide stereo output

Hello danielperez9,

There are two options for wiring a single 2ohm DVC subwoofer to a mono amp. The first gives a 1ohm load and should only be used if your amp is stable at 1ohm. The second option results in a 4ohm load and would be OK for most amps. Here are the diagrams:




Hope this helps.

You can buy splitters from radio shack or many other electronic/sound shops which split a male or female phono jack to separate stereo or mono output jacks. The most common is a phono jack to two separate mono 1/8" plugs. One way would be to purchase one of these, cut the ends off the outputs and strip the insulation, then use those to wire your amp. "Monster" brand puts out some of these splitters as well which use heavier gauge wire which would probably be most suitable for the task.

This one Wire should be for the +. Try connecting the + to the Head Unit and - to a Common Ground. At the Worst, You will Blow the Amp Fuse if not Correct. The Lead from the Head Unit is Only an Off and On from the Ignition. Please Rate My Response! Thanks!

depends if its dual 2 ohm or dual 4 ohm

well first check ur wireing next the amp is turned down or just bad amp let me no if that helps
